Iidentifywith - Tumblr Posts

The seventeenth piece in my photo series on group identity. I took this one of my friend Len at the Nikko Shrine in Japan. So, NPR has a project called NPR Census now which invites millenials to take selfies including both their US census category and what categories they self-identify with. It's odd how similar it is to this project, but I guess we're both just interested in taking a closer look at people's identities. More info on this series at the project site.

I’m continuing to work on part two of my I Identify With project, this time asking participants what groups they feel they don’t identify with that they’ve been lumped into by others. My intent is to create a positive counterpoint to these external categorizations; I feel that showing the negative side of things will help highlight the positive. This one is of my brother taken in Amakusa, Japan.
